at first I actually thought it was a joke. But then he said that Andrew Robinson was his favorite reviewer so right there you can tell this is a high level expert because we all know that Andrew Robinson is the biggest strongest smartest guy around..

he actually said that he was shocked that his speakers sounded different when he moved them around. Who knew? I think he actually said that he had been listening to speakers for years and had placed them behind his monitors to get them out of the way. And he says that he discovered his speakers sounded different  when he put them in different parts of the room and he is reporting that like he just discovered a new planet. I can’t imagine anyone would take this seriously.

I take him seriously....

Because coming in audio thread for decade i read all day long  people throwing money on brand name but never saying anything about acoustics concepts...

It is easy to mock him as an uneducated audiophile...

I prefer to think than mock people...

His experience tell us something we cannot  dismiss with sarcasm  if we are not stupid  and pointing him scapegoating him for our own deafness and blindness...

I put this video because of his "naive" takes on speakers and his genuine surprize about the POWER of acoustics...

Now imagine he knows everything there is to know about Helmholtz resonator...cool

Imagine he begin experiment with his low cost speakers...instead of "upgrading"...Before "upgrading" ...

Instead of mocking someone think and think again...

I can’t imagine anyone would take this seriously.

I myself know what "sound" is...

I dont give a damn about the industry...

This thread is about acoustics education and wise informed  purchasing... not about  Industrial marketing...

 

 This video will inform beginners to think about  before throwing money and study basics acoustics BEFORE upgrading...

 A lesson i learned alone, because no one taught this in audio thread save to sell acoustics panels conflated with acoustics science... i wish someone had taught me 40 years ago....

Those budget Youtubers have no concept of what sound is. That man does more damage to our industry…

 

Well, I suppose we can disagree. Unlike you, I can disagree with you without calling you stupid. But the man said that he has listened to the same speakers for many years and only just realized that they sound different if you move them to different positions in the room. Now, if you are impressed with that, good for you. That doesn’t tell me that he’s a bad fellow, but it does tell me that he’s not someone whose audio advice I value.  If you see it differently, I’m sure he’ll have some good advice for you and I hope you learn a lot from him. if you reach out to him, maybe he will help you position your speakers.

You have quite a habit of calling people ugly names anytime they express an opinion different from yours. Interesting approach.
